SQUAD: LV=County Championship returns to The PROBIZ

31-Jul-2012

LV=County Championship action returns to The PROBIZ County Ground, Hove for the first time since May tomorrow as Sussex begin their clash with Worcestershire (11.00am start).

Sussex leapfrogged Middlesex into fourth place in the Division One table yesterday following their draw with Nottinghamshire at Trent Bridge, and lie only ten points shy now of Somerset in third place. Worcestershire currently occupy second from bottom spot in the standings although they have played fewer games than every other side.

Chris Nash's superb 162 helped ensure Sussex's draw with Nottinghamshire on the final day whilst Ed Joyce also hit 98, and Luke Wells hit half-centuries in both innings of the match. Joyce will captain the side following Michael Yardy's decision to step down in four-day and 40-over cricket, with the squad for the match unchanged.
